Here are some of the key points to remember as you plan your trip to Amsterdam.Must-See AttractionsMost visitors begin their Amsterdam adventure in the Old Centre, which is full of traditional architecture, shopping centers, and coffee shops. Youll also want to check out Amsterdams Museum Quarter in the South District, which is great for shopping at the Albert Cuyp Market and having a picnic in the Vondelpark. The top museums to visit are the Rijksmusuem, the Ann Frank House, and the Van Gogh Museum. The Canal Ring is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was originally built to attract wealthy home owners and is a popular place for celebrity spotting and nightlife today. TransportationTravelers should be aware that Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is one of the busiest airports in the world. This airport is located about 15 kilometers southwest of city center. You can catch a train from Schiphol to Amsterdam Central Station, which has many connecting routes. Its typically not a good idea to drive a car to the city center because traffic is heavy and parking is difficult to find. Cycling is incredibly popular here, and its easy to find cheap bike rentals around town. Amsterdam has a flat terrain(地形) and is a great city to explore on foot.Money Saving TipsUnless you really want to see the tulips(郁金香) blooming, avoid booking between mid-March and mid-May. This is when hotel and flight prices rise.Look for accommodations in Amsterdams South District, where rates are generally cheaper than in the city center.Buy train tickets at the machine instead of the counter to save a bit of money.Instead of hiring a tour guide, hop on a canal boat.

A fellow park goer got the cat to release?its painful grasp by distracting the animal with a plastic water bottle.Mickey Ollson, the director of Wildlife World Zoo, told ABC that the jaguar?wont be harmed because of “human behavior”. He added that this wasnt the first time that the animal has injured a guest who got too close, however. Its not clear whether the park plans to re-evaluate the barrier around the exhibit, which has been described as a 3-foot wall. Leanne hopes that they will. “I was in the wrong for leaning over the barrier, but I do think the zoo should look into moving their fence back,” she told CBS News. “Im not the first, and if they dont move the fence, Im probably not going to be the last.”Kitty Block, president and CEO of the Humane Society of the United States, also urged the zoo and other parks to be cautious enough when it comes to separating the animals from people.“When various types of exhibitors promote all sorts of close meeting with wildlife, people get the mistaken idea that wild animals are approachable,” she said in a statement. “We urge the zoological community exhibitors to set a higher standard to protect people and to respect wildlife from a safe distance by doing away with public contact opportunities with wildlife of all species.”   4.
